[quote=Anonymous]I stay at home and I basically run the house. My husband plays a supporting role and “helps” but doesn’t take any responsibility for specific chores and has no handle whatsoever on the mental load type stuff. For instance, he will see me working well past when he is finished working and once in a while say “let me finish those dishes.” etc. On weekends he will throw a load of laundry in the dryer (but would never initiate a load) and otherwise will do a chore if I ask him to. We are at probably 95/5% on weekdays, which is OK because the house is my job. But still at about 85/15% after his work hours and weekends. I get that it’s not rocket science but my day is definitely longer than his and more physically demanding. The people whose husbands get up w the kid so they can sleep sound lucky! My day starts before his and ends after his. [/quote]
